Frequently Asked Questions

Where is The Bristal at York Avenue?

Does The Bristal have a community on the Upper West Side of Manhattan?

If you prefer the Upper West Side, we invite you to explore our sister community, 305 West End Assisted Living, located at the corner of West 74th and West End Avenue, 1 block from Riverside Drive.

Is assisted living right for me?

If maintaining a home has become burdensome, if you feel isolated or unsafe living alone, or if you would benefit from daily supportive services, assisted living offers the perfect balance of independence and support.

What activities and programs are available for residents in assisted living?

Residents can enjoy a full calendar of social, cultural, educational, and wellness programs, including art classes, fitness sessions, group outings, and entertainment. The Bristal communities are also proud to attend to residents’ suggestions and preferences, so if a request for a certain type of program arises, The Bristal communities will try to accommodate the request.

How is memory care different from assisted living at The Bristal?

Memory care at The Bristal communities provides 24/7 support for individuals with serious memory impairment, including a secure environment, lifestyle programming which takes residents’ preferences and abilities into account, and team members specially trained to provide care for residents with memory loss. Residents who receive memory in the Reflections neighbrohoods of The Bristal receive all of the benefits of assisted living and additional support for memory loss.
